Whatever you may think of Scooch and their airline-centric antics on behalf of Blighty at this year's Eurovision Song Contest, they have proved heaven sent for this little blogger.
It can't be long before having a themed party with your favourite chums to watch the Song Contest goes through Parliament to become law. In order to escape any possible fine, we have been doing just that over the past three years.
Last year, for the Athens-held event, it was easy. Baklava, hoummos, olives - the buffet was simplicity itself. But come the end of the voting, and Finnish rockers Lordi finally broke their proud nation's 45-year Euro duck, it struck me - how the Hard Rock Hallelujah do you host a party with a Finnish theme?
Serving wild berries and reindeer meat to bemused guests in a room made to look like a sauna is not the stuff smashing bashes are made of, so thank Wogan for those cheeky Scoochers. This year's party is going to have an airline theme.
The troops are already in action. Boarding passes will be handed out on arrival, a 'cheesyJet' guide to all the competing nations is being prepared to look like a Polish Airlines safety card from the 1960s, score grids will be complete once the 10 qualifiers from Thursday's semi final are known, and guest will pick countries from the hat on arrival for our sweepstake.
It is always a super night of harmless fun, and if you are having a Eurovision party of your own, share a few tips with us here.
